More to come from Toyota, says Trulli

The Italian driver will start the race from sixth position, despite admitting that he was not completely happy with his car's set-up.

But that has not stopped Trulli from being very optimistic of getting a strong result in the race.

"Sixth place is a good start to the season so the result is satisfying," said Trulli, who hadn't qualified that high since last year's Spanish Grand Prix.

"But it was quite a difficult qualifying session and I'm still not completely happy with the set-up because I wasn't able to get the most out of my lap. We've also been struggling more than we expected with the tyres here.

"So I feel there is more potential to come. Our race package is good so I am positive and optimistic for tomorrow.

"I just hope we can do a good race. Our long runs have been strong with this car during testing so I'll cross my fingers.

"I'm really fired up for the season and confident that we can get some strong results."
